Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Make it a poll. We don't have any playing for us. Wahey! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenige Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Perch. Get him to lead by example. Pretty soon we'll have 11 players lunging in with insane challenges. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_Taylor Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Cabaye for me. No one else worth it really. Will be Jonas though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Doesn't need to be sharp. Taylor will encourage team-mates to at the very least, battle. He gives 100% till the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Taylor isn't one to throw in the towel or act petulant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I voted Cabaye, but I'm not exactly enamoured by the choice. Best of a bad bunch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Would love to see a local lad with the armband, but Saylor is injured more than 50% of the time anyway and doesn't come across as being the sharpest tool in the box, on and off the field. So, Shola then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Doesn't need to be sharp. Taylor will encourage team-mates to at the very least, battle. He gives 100% till the end. Yes, but you're ignoring the fact that Taylor spends at least half a season in the treatment room. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I think Krul's a genuine dark horse like. Maybe young but always seems to go in the right spirit, has the never-say-die attitude and commands his area and back four well for a young lad. Pretty much an adopted Geordie as well.

Willow Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Going on performances, character, attitude and general influence at the club, I think we all know it has to go to Sammy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I voted Cabaye, but I'm not exactly enamoured by the choice. Best of a bad bunch. I think he'd be a better captain than Colo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Icke - Son of God Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Captains have got to be like a manager on the pitch, Paul Bracewell style. They've got to have an understanding of the game and lead by example. I don't think Taylor is capable of performing that role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyboy Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Steven Taylor (Not Ryan) He'd be very vocal and that's what we need at the back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 S. Taylor is always injured so that rules him out. Krul doesn't talk much to his defence so how can he be captain? Ben Arfa isn't that sort of player, he can be selfish in his play at times so I doubt he would ever be captain material. Cabaye is probably the best option, however his lack of form for a while is something that would make me skeptical (though I guess you can apply that to most of our team this season).

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Cabaye, fresh start and a boost for him. I wouldn't mind Taylor either if he could keep himself fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Find it rather sad really that a few seasons ago, we seemed to be a team of captains with Nolan, Barton, etc. How we could use players of their passion and leadership abilities now.

Wilson Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Honestly can't think of anyone who'd have it in them other than Yohan. Think he'd be fairly capable of dishing out a few bollockings (on and off the pitch) if necessary. Obviously Taylor gets a mention but I'd rule him out due to his...well...being a crock. But, Jonas will get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I think you need a club captain and a team captain. Club captain would have to be either Saylor, Krul or Shola as they are the only players who really seem to have a strong attachment to the club and seem to get more involved in community functions and are also happy to do the press side. On the pitch, it would have to be Cabaye - he has experience and the other players respect him and he is supposedly very influential in the dressing room. I always get the impression that the other players think of Taylor as a daft lad and don't take him too seriously although I think he is probably the most wholehearted player we have. Downside of Cabaye being captain is that recently, they tend to move on fairly soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
